Not happy with results.
well, i got my 3.73gears installed and went to the track and ran 7.68 at 88 mph on motor, my previous best pass was a 7.69 at 91 on motor with my 2.73 gears. I realize that the temperature was up a bit higher, but i figured i would see some better results. The car has been retuned for the gears and i figured that i would notice a nice improvement. Oh and the reason i decided to change the gears is because i have a cam fixing to go in and i knew the 2.73 gears just wouldn't work out well. But let me know what you guys think, i am pretty dissapointed.

I cant say what i gained from a 273to373 swap but i done full bolt ons the 3.73s and a taune and gained 1.1 off my e/t and 6mph....this was on the stock verter though......seems a gear swap doesnt benefit a stalled car as much....god i miss that setup...lol
